Rules

This competition is open to any amateur homebrewer age 21 or older.

All entries must be handcrafted products, containing ingredients available to the general public, and made using private equipment by hobbyist brewers (i.e., no use of commercial facilities or Brew on Premises operations, supplies, etc.).

The competition organizers are not responsible for mis-categorized entries, mailed entries that are not received by the entry deadline, or entries that arrived damaged.

The competition organizers reserve the right to combine styles for judging and to restructure awards as needed depending upon the quantity and quality of entries.

Qualified judging of all entries is the primary goal of our club challenges.

Judges will evaluate and score each entry.
1st, 2nd & 3rd place will be assigned based on that judge's scores.
The software will then determine the rankings (1st, 2nd & 3rd) as follows.
For each entry
  - 3 points is assigned for every 1st place rank 
  - 2 points is assigned for every 2nd place rank and
  - 1 point is assigned for every 3rd place
These points will then be totaled.
- The entry with the most points takes 1st place.
- The entry with the next highest point total takes 2nd place.
- The entry with the next highest point total takes 3rd place.
  ** This was the way the HeadQuarters used to manually calculate the rankings.

Entry Acceptance Rules
